Thanks guys, great feedback. And the * is a lifesaver on the searches, it's a whole new world now!

I suspected the cell tower/GPS theory. The locks were way to quick plus my basement comment but I have incredible EVDO here in Delaware, Ohio.

I figured the GPS was really at the towers.

I also was impressed with my battery running the phone for two hours on gps and all day at work. I believe the only premature power consumption on my new xv6900 as due to screen being on for almost two hours while I played with Google Maps!

This really is a great phone! Now that I removed my horrible cook'd wm6.1 and got a clean Verizon 6.1 with no junk it flys...
